Keith and Lea had signed up for another four flatpacks to be unflatpacked into two wardrobes. All went smoothly, considering the recent experience gained in this area… only unsmooth thing was: oops, Lea dropping one of the flatpacks on her toes, ouch! At least it was not her thumb that got bashed this time. #job✅

Three Goodgymmers, Daryl, Keith and Lea, got their tools out, ready to tackle more flatpacks for another refugee family. Two wardrobes, four flatpacks?!?! Oh, two flatpacks each, luckily numbered nicely to get the right packs together. Tools laid out, screws, dowels and all the other bits and bobs lined up, wardrobe parts ready and waiting. Lifting, shifting, hammering and of course screwing in ALL those screws… One screw left, one dowel left, oh oh… no no they are spares, no problem! Phew! And eh, Lea, you are not supposed to hit your thumb with the hammer, ouch! Good teamwork resulted in two nice wardrobes set up in no time for an Afghan refugee family to use as from next week. Well done, team!

Five Goodgymmers, Sophie, Millie, Emma, Keith and Lea, turned up at the directed location…. Where are we supposed to be?! Janet (on the phone), Mr Google and a six minute walk got us to the right door to knock on. Up the stairs we went to find two Ikea flatpacks waiting for us. After the unpacking phase, on to the instructions phase onto the screwing and hammering phase. With Millie, the Ikea flatpack specialist, and Sophie, the instruction booklet expert, we all got to work swiftly and efficiently. Everyone had a go at hammering and screwing, lifting and shifting. With the first wardrobe completed and set up in the right corner, a welcome quick tea break followed, after which wardrobe number two was screwed together and set up in no time. Next week a refugee family from Afghanistan will move in. Judging by the fairy bedlinen and the football and tractor bedlinen: two girls and two boys. A very satisfying task, and what’s more, ICN is keen to get us involved in more tasks.
